Gel Electrophoresis And Its Significance In Oral Pathology- A Review

Abstract

Electrophoresis is a versatile approach for separating molecules based on their size and electrical charges. It is a frequently used technique in dentistry for a various purposes, such as analyzing dental materials and proteins related to oral diseases. It helps in identifying different types of proteins with various interactions and can be used as potent biomarkers in oral diseases. Recent days the use of electrophoresis in dentistry has become a significant technique for significantly analyzing dental materials and characterizing proteins in oral diseases according to their molecular structure and mechanism. In this review article we discussed briefly about principles, advantages and limitations of electrophoresis, types and various applications of electrophoresis in oral diseases.
